INTRO: G F C G G D C
G D
They packed up all his buckles
Em C
And shipped his saddle to his dad
G Em
And by the way the house looked
Am D
She must have took it bad
G
The workers come on Monday
C
To fix the door and patch the wall
G D
They say she just went crazy
Em C
The night she got the call
G D
He was up in Wyoming
Em C
And drew a bull no man could ride
G Em
He promised her he'd turn out
Am D
Well it turned out that he lied
G
And all the dreams that they'd been livin'
C
In the california sand
Em D
Died right there beside him
C
In Cheyenne
CHORUS:
C G
They say she just went crazy
D G
Screamin' out his name
C G
She ran out into the ocean
Em C
And to this day they claim
G F
That if you go down by the water
C G
You'll see her footprints in the sand
'Cause every night she walks
D C
The beaches of Cheyenne
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK: REPEAT INTRO (G F C G G D C)
G D
They never found her body
Em C
Just her diary by the bed
G Em
It told about the fight they had
Am D
And the words that she had said
G
When he told her he was ridin'
C
She said then I don't give a damn
Em D C
If you never come back from Cheyenne
REPEAT CHORUS
C G
Nobody can explain it
D G
Some say she's still alive
C G
They'd even claim they've seen her
Em C
On the shoreline late at night
G F
So if you go down by the water
C G
You'll see her footprints in the sand
'Cause every night she walks
D C
The beaches of Cheyenne
G
'Cause every night she walks
D C
The beaches of Cheyenne
